You Are One Step Closer to a Dallas Remake

DallasRemake120.jpgTNT is finally moving forward with that Dallas reboot you were (not really) hoping for. As announced last December, Cane creator Cynthia Cidre is penning the project, which will center on the sons of bitter rivals JR and Bobby Ewing. Filming will begin shortly on the pilot, which is said to guest-star original cast members Larry Hagman, Linda Gray, and Patrick Duffy. No word yet on who will portray the next generation Ewings, or if this will suffer from the same problems as similarly schizophrenic reboots like 90210 and Melrose Place. [Vulture]

    ...and thus fewer than ten steps away from Falcon Crest 2012.

    Can Knotts Landing: The Next Generation be far behind?

    Is nothing sacred? Leave the cheesy primetime soap operas of my childhood alone, Hollywood!

    WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO HVE REAL ACTORS COME BACK.

    Remake of "Dallas?" Another media pimp, with no imagination, adulterating a "one time only" program.
    May it 1) fail before getting to TV, or 2) crash and burn after one episode.
    How about some actual legitmate creativity? How about showing some talent v. being a machine of mimicry? Lacking those, TV will remain cr*p!

    Let me guess. The events from 1977-1991 were all a dream.

    I want to play Lucy!

    I'll take a guess, too . . . With all the messing around that went on, maybe there are lots of sons. Maybe even a ruthless female spawn of J.R. & Kristin that kills all the male heirs, one by one . . . as she schemes toward Texas succession and her future queenship of the Nation of Lone Star. (Texas is, after all, bigger than France.)
